Bent is an oscillator plugin for Korg’s multi engine. It implements a novel synthesis method called “bent-wave modulation”, developed by Sinevibes. Bent combines a classic modulator-carrier pair of sine oscillators with a unique “bender” module which changes the modulator signal’s curvature, phase, and time symmetry. Despite its digital nature, bent-wave modulation produces sounds more akin to a mix of two synchronized and filtered analog oscillators – with smooth, elastic waveform morphing. Due to its specific density and rounded curvature, Bent also forms a perfect symbiosis with Korg’s resonant low-pass filter, creating sounds with incredible plasticity.
This plugin is part of the Sinveibes KorgOSC Collection. The following plugins are also available in the series:
- KorgTube
- KorgTurbo
Features
- Two sine oscillators with unique module that “bends” curvature, phase, and time symmetry before the frequency modulation stage.
- Five different output waveforms with variable shape and harmonic balance.
- Built-in lag filters for noise-free, ultra-smooth parameter adjustment and modulation.
- Built-in LFO with widely adjustable frequency (0.1 to 10 Hz).
- Built-in envelope generator with widely adjustable attack and decay times (1 ms to 10 s).

Before You Start ⚠️
In order for oscillator plugins and supplied presets to function correctly, you must make sure that your Korg synthesizer has the latest available firmware update and that after installing it you also perform the panel update and voice update procedures.
If you install the firmware update but do not complete the panel and the voice updates, this can negatively affect other aspects of your instrument’s operation, not just compatibility with third-party plugins. When you power your Korg on, the main screen will warn you if such additional updates are required. Please refer to your Korg product's user manual for how to check the firmware version installed on your synthesizer - and visit www.korg.com to download the latest version. The download package will also contain the instructions for doing the panel and voice updates.
Plugin Installation
1. Download the .zip file from within your Plugin Boutique User Account > Double-click it to extract the contents.
2. Connect your Korg synthesizer to your computer via MIDI or USB-MIDI and launch the Librarian app.
3. While in the USER OSCILLATORS tab, drag and drop the Bent plugin file into an available slot.
Important Note: For the supplied presets to work, Bent needs to be placed in the #2 user oscillator slot.
4. Press the SEND ALL button in the USER OSC/FX toolbar section.
Patch Installation
1. Connect your Korg synthesizer to your computer via MIDI or USB-MIDI and launch the Librarian app.
2. While in the PROGRAM tab, click to highlight the location into which you want to load the patch.
3. Drag and drop the patch file onto the highlighted location.
4. Press the SEND ALL button in the PROGRAMS toolbar section.
Your Korg Multi Engine Plugin and Patches are now installed and ready to use within your Korg Synthesizer.
